apt seems to think this is an inconsistent state, and thus refuses to do anything unless you resolve the situation.
A simple workaround is to rebuild db4 and remove the obsoletes tag. That's the theory. In practice, db4 is hard to rebuild, but with some tweaking and using mach it worked out fine. So, if you want to, you can try installing the packages I built for db4.
Jeff Johnson, the rpm author, recommends to do this by running
rpm -Fhv *.rpm --repackage --nodigest --nosignature, so that you have repackaged rpms that allow you to return to the previous state if something goes wrong. These end up in /var/spool/repackage.
